How do you debug Apple Watch OS 2.0 Apps? - xcode7

I have been running a blank app template app on Watch OS 2.0 and put debug break points in the interfaceController and it appears that it is not working ?

You have to select the correct scheme. Otherwise you are debugging the container app.

Creating a cross platform runtime AIR app

I am compiling an AIR application from Animate CC (mac version) with runtime embedded. No issues on the mac, but when i transfer the app file to a PC (running windows obviously), the app icon displays as a folder instead, and there is nothing within this folder that I can click on to run the app.
I was under the impression that Adobe AIR is cross platform compatible, so am I doing something wrong when compiling, or do I have to compile on a PC to create a runtime embedded app that will run on Windows?
It's impossible to launch Mac app on Windows. Because embed runtimes are different for Win/Mac. Here you can get some more info https://superuser.com/questions/56739/executable-files-in-mac-os-x-vs-windows.
So you either build 'Mac projector' and run it on Mac or 'Windows projector' to run on Windows (you can change this option in File -> Publish Settings). Tick both options and you'll be able to run it on Win and Mac.
One more option is to build AIR app - but it will require AIR runtime installed.
You're correct that Adobe AIR is cross platform compatible, but publishing from a Mac doesn't give you a Windows-runnable app, nor does publishing from Windows give you a Mac-runnable app.
You'll need to compile on a PC to get a Windows-runnable .exe

OnShareTargetActivated WindowsPhone 8.1 Target App crashes on debug

I'm trying to share Image to my Win 8.1 Phone App
When I select my app from share dialog.
The debugging in visual studio closes with error
Error:
Unable to start debugging 'U:\SharedData\PhoneTools\AppsLayouts\MyApp\MyApp.exe'
The object invoked has disconnected form client
When not debugging, in that case also the Target App Crashes
Any help to resolve this. I want to be able to debug my target app when activated through file sharing.
Follow these steps to debug your share target app.
Set breakpoints in your target app.
Check ‘Do not launch but debug my code when it starts’ in project properties.
Launch your app in debugger – nothing happens.
Run share client app to share image, select your app from share dialog.
Debugger attaches and breaks on your breakpoint.

Deployment error in Windows Phone 8.1 app with capability Shared User Certificates in manifest

If i check the capability "Shared Used Certificates" in the Windows Phone 8.1 application manifest i get the following error:
Error : DEP0001 : Unexpected Error: Package could not be registered.
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80073CF6)
Manifest
<Capability Name="sharedUserCertificates" />
I am trying to deploy to a Nokia Lumia Icon with Windows Phone 8.1 developer preview.
Any idea what i am doing wrong or what prereq is not met?
I was able to deploy my app to the emulator, but not to a real device. I got the same error. I asked my contacts at the Phone Team and they said this is a bug and will be fixed with the post RTM updates. It should definitely be possible to sideload apps using the 'sharedUserCertificates' to real devices for normal app developers.
Getting such an app deployed through the Store may be restricted, though. This scenario is primarily meant for enterprise apps, deployed within enterprises.
I wrote a blog post about this.
If I set my phone to install apps to the phone it works just fine. If I switch it back then I get the error.
It has something to do with SD cards!! Not the SD cards per-se , but the mech The only thing different was I installed a new SD card this weekend to my Lumia 1520 with Developer Unlock. I am running VS 2013 Update 4 and have a StandAlone Phone application using a Windows 8.1 shared app class. It was working before and now its not. same error as MAGNUS
With save apps to SD CARD setting in storage sense set
If you use verbose build output it eventually says:
2>Follow the phone setting 2>Phone setting says apps to be installed
to SD card 2>layout root folder:
D:\WPSystem\SharedData\PhoneTools\AppxLayouts
With save apps to PHONE card setting in storage sense
If you use verbose build output it eventually says:
2>Follow the phone setting 2>Phone setting says apps to be installed
to internal storage 2>layout root folder:
C:\Data\SharedData\PhoneTools\AppxLayouts
search your Detailed or "verbose" build output for the term "Phone setting says"
That will get you close. Good luck.
I can confirm that VS 2013 Update 4 causes the error:
Error : DEP0001 : Unexpected Error: Package could not be registered.
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x80073CF6)
My application was deploying to the phone fine before the update, and started failing immediately after the update. Modifying settings:
Settings/Storage Sense/Store New apps on my: phone
Solved the problem. Thanks Matt for the tip, saved me alot of time.
Try to uninstall current application in your phone, and run agian.
For me its solved
This problem can be related to re-use of the same app template on Windows Phone (does not affect Windows desktop apps). In the Windows Phone section of the solution explorer, find your app manifest file (Package.appxmanifest), and review the following line near the top of the file (#'s in this example are representative, not actual):
<mp:PhoneIdentity PhoneProductId="12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789ABC" PhonePublisherId="00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000" />
If you have re-used the same app template, then the PhoneProductId number must be different from one iteration to the next. I suggest simply iterating the last digit in the string (e.g., change 1 to 2, or 2 to 3, etc....). Once you make certain all your Windows Phone apps have individualized values in this field, you should be able to deploy them all independently.
It could also be a missing image in the Package.appxmanifest. Check the visual assets tab in this file (VisualElements in XML) to see if there is some logo missing.
I changed package name in Package.appxmanifest file. So I had to Uninstall app and Re Installation helped me.

Getting blank screen from packaged air desktop application

I am developing an as3 application intended to be published with AIR.
I use the 4.6 version of Flex SDK with the flash builder plugin for eclipse.
I can launch/debug my app via eclipse without any problems. I export a valid version of the app and get my air installer. When I install and launch my app, I get a blank screen...
I don't know how to debug this. It seems that I miss something in the publication configuration but I don't know what.
I have been searching the web for hours and didn't find any solution, hope somebody can help me here !
Thanks for any help.
It simply was a real as3 error that didn't show up on debug mode...
When allowing the debug mode on the AIR application I learned that the property mouseChildren cannot be set on SimpleButton.
I got the same problem with my app and I finally found a way to display the error in the package app:
You just have to add a file named debug into your app/META-INF/AIR folder.

JavaFx 2 applicaton does not run when i run it through HTML page

I have downloaded the javafx 2 samples and want to run in from its HMTL. For example there is one javafx application called BrickBreaker. For the specific sample the following files exist : BrickBreaker.jar, BrickBreaker.jnlp and BrickBreaker.html
When double clicking on jar or jnlp the application runs as expected but when i click on the html the application does not run. Instead i get the message "View the conectes of the page. Please install javaFX"
Why is that happening ? ( i have the javafx installed as the application runs when choosing the jar and jnlp files). My guess is that the html should be called from within the context of a webserver meaning that i should deploy my application first to a server and call the url from my explorer. For example if using glassfish i should call the url http://localhost:8080/Brickbraker
The problem is that i don't know how to deploy the javafx application in the server.
i tried to copy paste all the above three files in the autodeploy folder but it didnt worked...
Could you please help me?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: some more info - I have installed JDK 7 and JavaFX SDK 2.0.2
No, JavaFX is client technology, you don't need Glassfish to run it. JavaFX should run in browser the same way as Java plugins do.
If you can't run an application directly from html file it means your browser doesn't recognize you have runtime installed.
There can be next reasons for that:
JavaFX runtime is actually not installed (check in Windows Control Panel)
pure java plugin is not installed (you can check on java.com)
javafx runtime is 32bit and you are using 64bit browser (or vice versa)
you are using not supported browser (e.g. Safari)
you are using not supported system (at this moment, January 2012, only Windows supports runtime)
